Release M key: Return to open duplex. On the M-release device send a DTMF '#'
The ZCP will relay these DTMF * and # events to the remote device.

Remote Control of Speech Mode (Received DTMF)
Zenitel native devices respond to DTMF signals received from the remote device:


Speech mode of Zenitel native devices is also controlled by DTMF '*' / '#' events received from remote:

On receiving DTMF *


On receive DTMF '#' : Return to open duplex
Device enters Listen Mode
Microphone is muted


This require no configuration. But does not apply if neither of the devices in the call are Zenitel native device.

Press-to-Talk During a Call

During a normal two‑way call, Zenitel intercom devices operate in open duplex mode with built‑in echo cancellation.

Zenitel native devices also support Press‑to‑Talk (PTT) functionality, allowing users to temporarily override open duplex mode.

Press-to-Talk Operation (Local Actions)

  • Press M key
    • Device enters Talk Mode
    • Loudspeaker is muted
    • The device sends DTMF ‘*’ to the remote side
  • Release M key
    • Device returns to Open Duplex
    • The device sends DTMF ‘#’ to the remote side

The ZCP will relay these DTMF * and # events to the remote device.

Remote Control of Speech Mode (Received DTMF) Zenitel native devices respond to DTMF signals received from the remote device:


On receiving DTMF ‘*’

Device enters Listen Mode Microphone is muted


On receiving DTMF ‘#’

Device returns to Open Duplex



Configuration Requirements No additional configuration is required for Press‑to‑Talk functionality. However, this feature only applies when at least one device in the call is a Zenitel native device. If neither device in the call is Zenitel native, Press‑to‑Talk does not apply.
